Serial Number 4046341 was reported as inaccurate.
(model 1873? ) is from the same run and IDENTICAL
to #4046147. I think the pallet bridge is the
key.(gilded1873 style) But why then is #3551224
listed as a VERIFIED model 1889 along with other
watches in that run (same gilded pallet bridge)
and estimated made in 1888. Confused ??

Serial Number 4046147 was reported as inaccurate.
movement is an 1873 model, based on being lever
set and having a pallet bridge as opposed to the
pallet cock on the 1889 model. Escapement is also
different.
